i think he was able to articulate obama's message in a way obama hasn't been able to. he essentially can't be in the position of apologizing for the bad economy whereas clinton, because of his bona fides on the economy can pivot it into this social economic justice where the democrats are going to be much stronger. i don't think we'll get any new policies or new messages out of obama tonight. his idea now is not to have more of it, but to simplify the message and hate it very hard. >> dana, bravely fighting the crowds there. thank you, dana, and krystal ball as well. first, hampton pearson has the cnbc market wrap. >>> positive news rallying the markets. the dow adding 244 points. s&p up 28. nasdaq gaining 66 points. that's it from cnbc, first in business worldwide. bob... oh, hey alex. just picking up some, brochures, posters copies of my acceptance speech. great! it's always good to have a backup plan, in case i get hit by a meteor. wow, your hair looks great. didn't realize they did photoshop here. hey, good call on those mugs. can't let 'em see what you're drinking
